Tezlapod Pet Information

Note: Forgot to put this in the initial edit, so just want to thank Evey for providing some higher lvl xp points while my pet was still a baby for comparison to my model :D.

Hi all. Figured I’d share some information that I have so far been able to acquire from my Tezlapod pet.

Here is its XP versus Level Plot. I have data up to Level 31, and it matches with the modeled experience function pretty much exactly, so I expect I have the exact function for level vs experience, unless a different function somehow applies at higher levels. The exact function is:
experience = 80level^2 - 60level -20

[IMG width=“478px”]https://i.imgur.com/9wBoOc7.jpgBlue points are measured data, green is model

This means that level 26 should be achievable at 52500 experience, level 50 by 196980, and level 80 at 507180 experience.

I also tested experience gain.

Running the focus buff, without doing tricks, I gained 1.507 experience per energy. (This includes natural energy consumption, I’m assuming the rates are equal for this analysis)

Tricks at ~100% focus nets 2.4 experience per energy (I tested Roll Over and Boast, both were the same). Focus seems to be a linear multiplier, 90% focus means you will get 90% of the 2.4 max xp/energy.

Assuming that you left the pet’s focus generation buff on and did no tricks, it will consume 3 ped per hour of nutrio, gaining 452 experience per hour.

So, doing this inefficient on nutrio but fast on real life time method:

Level 26 can be acquired after 116 hours, at a cost of 348 peds of nutrio bars.

Level 50 can be acquired after 436 hours, at a cost of 1307 peds of nutrio bars.

Level 80 can be acquired after 1122 hours, at a cost of 3366 peds of nutrio bars.

The amount of nutrios to level was lower than I expected, so that was nice to see. Hopefully my arithmetic here is right.

Nice work!

Is it the same line for all pets?

If yes, it’d be very useful a figure or matrix experience-tt Nutriobars

.

Thanks for sharing! I have to question your math though. Was this based on speculation or on experience?

I got my pet to lvl26 and it consumed a little less than 600 peds Nutrio bars per my very very rough calculations. I was not exactly tracking TT of nutrio fed to pet however so I could be off by a little, but not off by the margin you state above? I was doing tricks all the way down to 89% focus, usually one trick, “Boast” whenever focus was near 100%. And I’m pretty sure it took me lot less than 116hrs…

Edit: My pet was about 5.5k Exp to reach lvl26. Time I spent getting pet to lvl26 was rough guesstimate 50-60 hrs taming. Nutrio consumed was again, very very rough guestimate little less than 600 peds TT of Nutrio.
Looking at your graph above, you have level 26 at 5k Exp? not 5.5k? Maybe that’s where your math is different than mine? Just a guess.

This is pet at almost lvl27:

Again, my math was NOT based on exact calculations, so if you tracked exact consumption, etc. you probably have it right. :slight_smile:

I unlocked Electrotherapy with about 350 nutrio cost (tracked). Now at level 50, everything else checks out too, food consumption, timing, exp points.
Good thing that things in this world move forward based on the scientific methods and not on the gut feeling / ‘guesstimating’ :wink:

Thanks Zho!

Looks like good math :slight_smile:

Yeah, based on your picture Zho’s math is spot on!

Did you do any tricks to level or just passive leveling?

I’m still dumbfounded as to how I spent about 150 PEDs more to get to lvl26. I was doing tricks every minute or so when focus was close to 100%, and I did do some tricks with very low focus to show off the pet, but that should not be enough to account for about 150peds more nutrio consumption. :cry:

It wasn’t top quality food prolly. Goodboy deserves the best!

If you do tricks at less then 100% focus you will get less experience on average, so doing tricks at 90% or lower can increase the cost.

yeah, aware of that, but didn’t think it would amount to about 150 peds extra, but that’s the best explanation at this point. :cry:

I read a post a long time back, you can do tricks down to 89% focus before you start losing peds due to going lower than the passive exp to nutrio ratio. Not sure how correct that is.

Per OP, “Tricks at ~100% focus nets 2.4 experience per energy… Focus seems to be a linear multiplier, 90% focus means you will get 90% of the 2.4 max xp/energy.” I’m too brain dead right now to do the maths, but I’m guessing it is still around that taking MU and everything into consideration.

Do you know how much xp per energy you get with no buff activated so just the base consumption?

This info can be seen on the pet status window. The “metabolic rate” is how many nutrio bars the pet will consume per hour. And the OP gave the math for how the exp relates to nutrio consumption. It’s a curve, not linier…

But the experience point per energy consumption is not the same for base + focus buff vs performing tricks, so I was wondering if it is different when a buff is not activated.

I did a short test (just 7 energy), and it was about 1.61 XP/nutrio with no buffs and not tricks, just sitting there. So not a whole lot different than with a buff turned on.

Yeah, here’s the xp/energy vs focus plot, I’ll add it to the OP

One guess is, are you considering TT+MU or TT? If your number included MU that would certainly account for a large part of it. All my values are based on TT…

Awesome to have some additional confirmation at higher levels :smiley:

Right, but that same 7 energy will net you diferent exp based on what level your pet is, per your graph about, correct? That’s why I answered him as I did above.

Dude, you’re awesome!!!

Can you do the same plot with current MU added in? I think it will be quite different. Hence why someone in the past said doing tricks down to 89% is a wash, after that you lose more peds than exp gain on passive nutrio to exp gains. Would be really enlightening to see the same plot with MU added into it.

Nah, the experience per level changes, not the experience gained per energy.

Some more numbers to play with that I gathered so far:
Started to use the Focus buff with lvl. 4. Hope my math is right. :smiley:
